The Wise Lord - The Wise Lord chapter 102
Episode 102 – The Truth Revealed (1)
what···?
I don’t even ask
What the hell is going on right now…?
I don’t even want to ask
I just couldn’t understand what was happening in front of me.
Death Knights kneeling down towards Xian.
Because of that, all the darkness that had threatened death to Xian until just now bowed their heads in front of Xian.
The source of the demon that bloomed in Xian’s body was at a loss.
It was the demon of the source that subdued the raging darkness.
Even the level of the rampaging darkness was not low.
Even the power of the source was not easy to obey.
Even so, he reminded me of the difference in rank and obeyed step by step.
Suddenly, the seething darkness disappeared in an instant.
The darkness, which had been resisting to death, suddenly overturned and obeyed.
Because of this situation, the demonic energy of the source was momentarily dumbfounded.
Like ‘What! What the hell is this?!’ seemed to be shouting.
And it accurately represented Xi’an’s feelings now.
Xian narrowed his eyes.
My head goes blank and I don’t understand the situation.
The Death Knight shouted ‘Master’ to Xian.
A whopping 30 Death Knights also said the same thing, so he probably didn’t hear it wrong.
In a word, it means that Xian is the master of those Death Knights.
But what kind of nonsense is that?
There were people who could be called masters of Xian.
None other than Ruben’s soldiers.
But where do you see the death knights in front of you? Ruben’s soldiers.
Ah, could it be that Ruben was destroyed in that moment?
Was Ruben ruined by being eaten by the dark forest?
So, with that grudge, I followed Xian and came here.
While waiting for Xian at Muriel’s ruins, he was swallowed up by a demon.
Flashing with madness, now suddenly, it’s a bummer to come to your senses!
Absolutely no way!
then what
What kind of situation is this?
what is it really What is it really?
Xian thought of all the possibilities in his head.
However, no matter how much I think about it, I can explain the current situation—.
‘ah! this···?’
Then burst.
A thought flashed through my mind.
Xian looked at the Death Knights who were kneeling.
And the most advanced Death Knight.
I told the Death Knight, who was at a level comparable to Durak.
“If it’s your master… are you referring to Kyle?”
Then, the Death Knight gently raised his head.
Pale, trembling dark blue eyes.
Maybe.
-also···.
It seemed right to say Kyle.
To put it simply, they seemed to be the ones following Kyle.
Somehow, they said they were all master level.
Such crazy knights don’t exist on the continent.
The Royal Knights of the Imperial Family and the White Wolf Knights of Ellandur.
Both of these knights are made up of experts.
Nevertheless, they are considered one of the strongest knights on the continent.
But are all the members masters?
what more can i say
Literally, it could be seen as a group of crazy knights.
But now the Death Knights in front of me.
Is Kyle still Kyle?
Those who followed him were also at a level that made no sense.
So it seemed that there was a serious misunderstanding.
No, it was not a misunderstanding, it seemed to be misunderstanding.
Because Sian wasn’t Kyle.
So Xian wondered if it was okay to say such a thing.
But I also wanted to know the truth.
Apparently, even though he was encroached on by demons, he did not seem to lose his reason.
The madness I had just felt was terrifying.
It didn’t look like it was completely engulfed, though.
A person with whom you can communicate in one word.
Sian slowly opened his mouth.
“I am not Kyle.”
-·······?
Then, the Death Knight’s eyes were stained with bewilderment.
– Now… What are you talking about? Just now, that strength and energy was definitely the lord. No matter how many years have passed, my senses have not dulled.
It was an accurate sensation that was certainly not blunted.
Those who called Kyle their master and followed him.
In other words, the thousand years of life alone are laid down as a basis.
However, far from being blunted by those far-off years.
The shape has become sharper with the passage of time.
In addition to Xian’s Mahon manufacturing method, even the Mahon Sura sword’s Suracheonsal.
The Death Knight in front saw it through.
“I know it’s a misunderstood situation… but I’m not Kyle anyway.”
Even so, Xian denied it.
Because it wasn’t what it wasn’t.
Then the Death Knight looked greatly embarrassed.
At the same time, the other 30 Death Knights were greatly agitated.
-Then what the hell…
The Death Knight’s eyes trembled.
Xian continues to deny that.
What Xian showed just now was Kyle’s strength.
It seemed that he was very confused by the conflicting truths.
And there was a usual voice from Xian about this.
“You can think of him as Kyle’s successor.”
-heir?
The Death Knight’s head tilted slightly.
Xian’s words that he is Kyle’s successor.
He didn’t seem to understand that.
Well, that was enough.
Because Kyle didn’t directly leave an heir.
In fact, it was just a word that Xian himself spewed out as an excuse.
So is Leah.
The same goes for the Death Knight right in front of you.
To those who knew Kyle, it would have sounded like a nonsense.
-The master’s successor…
The Death Knight’s eyes trembled.
It seems like a fact that is hard to believe.
He seemed to be deeply troubled.
But since I’ve seen it before my eyes, I can’t deny it.
How much time had passed like that?
-The leader of the Black Lion Knights, Kendrick. Meet the lord’s heir.
Death Knight, Kendrick, who had finished his worries, once again expressed his respect to Xian.
-Meet the master’s successor.
-Meet the master’s successor.
-Meet the master’s successor.
At the same time, 30 Death Knights all bowed in unison.
“uh···.”
For some reason, Xian felt awkward.
They were the ones who tried to kill Xian just a moment ago.
Remnants of the horror of that terrible murder still lingered in Xian’s mind.
A grisly murderous intent that cannot survive.
Not to mention the demon of negation, the lich.
Could it have been a bit comparable to Nurbia, the demon of indolence?
Of course, Nurbia was getting in the way of Helen.
It was also in a state where it was not able to demonstrate its full power.
Even so, Nurbia was overwhelming.
A similar fear was felt from the Death Knights now.
Those Death Knights are now all under Xian’s feet.
Something… felt strange.
what though
Wouldn’t that have worked out well?
After organizing his thoughts, Sian spoke to Kendrick.
“What the hell… how did this happen?”
– Lord. Please feel free to speak.
When Sian asked, Kendrick answered right away.
-Although he is said to be the successor of the lord, he is the one chosen by the lord. Then we are no different from our lords.
To say the least, Kyle didn’t choose Xian.
“uh···.”
Because of that, Xian couldn’t easily let go of his words.
First of all, there was a reason for the above.
Apparently, they are all knights who followed Kyle.
that means that.
This meant that all of them were at least a thousand years old.
Xian, on the other hand, has not been that long since it has passed 20 years.
It is a bit awkward even for a cyan to talk to such people.
-If the lord raises his words, we are uncomfortable.
But what are you talking about like that?
Honestly, it’s just that Kyle didn’t choose.
In fact, it was not unreasonable to call Sian Kyle’s successor.
“Well… then that’s it.”
Xian let go without any hesitation.
Kendrick then nodded.
“so. How the hell is this situation? Why are you guys at Muriel’s ruins?”
Death Knights including Kendrick.
So, the knights who followed Kyle.
There was absolutely no reason for them to be at Muriel’s ruins.
At least, there were parts that could be guessed.
It was ‘Kill the people of the Vatican’ that the Death Knights were chanting.
Death Knights are demonic beings who were resurrected by the resentment of outstanding knights during their lifetime.
that means that.
These could be interpreted as meaning that there was a grudge related to the Holy See.
And this place is none other than the ruins of Muriel.
Also, down to the fact that Kyle met Muriel on the quest.
“Couldn’t it be that Kyle was stabbed in the back by Muriel?”
Muriel joined forces with the Holy See and betrayed Kyle.
The quest said Kyle didn’t die.
Maybe I lost a lot of power or something like that.
The reason why this was possible was the Black Lion Knights who followed Kyle here.
They risked their lives to escape Kyle.
I couldn’t forget the grudge and revenge, so I became a Death Knight.
In this situation, the front and back fit together.
-no.
In other words, it fit perfectly.
Kendrick shook his head softly and continued.
-I’m careful to say this… but the previous lord was not at the level of Saint Muriel’s dare to do anything.
Kendrick’s former master is none other than Kyle.
Xian nodded.
Hagisa, what kind of existence is Kyle, and what can a mere Vatican do?
Even if Muriel joined in, that would be impossible.
Of course, the power of the Holy See could not be ignored.
Even more so, if Muriel, who was Arnaise, was added, it was correct to assume that there was virtually nothing that could be stopped.
But Kyle was an exception.
Take a look at Elodie’s records on the day Xian passed away.
Elodie said of Kyle’s strength:
‘How strong is Kyle? Kyle was our colleague, but we didn’t know much about him.’
‘But one thing. One thing that was certain about Kyle was that even if we all went against him, we couldn’t defeat him.’
Literally the strongest Arnaiz.
A unique existence in the long history of the continent.
Exceed, the one who has set foot on the stage beyond.
He was Kyle.
“Then why…?”
– Quite the opposite.
“the opposite?”
At Sian’s question, Kendrick was silent for a moment.
It seemed like he was thinking about where to start and how to explain it.
And a word that followed.
-The former lord tried to kill all the people of the Vatican.
“······ to?”
Xi’an’s mind went blank once again.
#
“You said Kyle tried to kill everyone in the Vatican?”
-That’s right.
Kendrick nodded at Xian’s question.
“why···?”
-The reason… We don’t know.
Kendrick’s dark blue eyes flickered awkwardly.
-In fact, it was also sudden that the former lord found us. Before that, the former lord had suddenly disappeared.
It seemed like he was talking about after Kyle faced some kind of truth.
Facing a certain truth, Arnaise’s colleagues, of course.
Kyle disappeared without saying anything to Leah.
As expected, it seemed that he hadn’t said anything to the knights who followed him.
– The former lord who came to us suddenly said this.
‘We have to kill the people of the Vatican.’
It is said that the Knights of the Black Lion, including Kendrick, were embarrassed.
You came to me and said something like that.
No matter how much Kyle said, it was difficult to follow easily.
‘Lord, lord…! How could you say such a thing…!’
Kendrick asked.
Kyle replied:
‘I’d like to explain… but this truth shouldn’t be known to many. I’m sorry.’
Kyle spoke to Kendrick again.
‘The only thing I can tell you is that the powers of the Holy See are related to the devil.’
Kyle said he looked at Kendrick with complicated eyes and expressions.
‘I will meet Muriel. You guys, kill the people of the Vatican in three days.’
And that was a side of Kyle Kendrick had never seen before.
like that.
‘I feel like I’ve given you guys an excessive burden… but please. As of now, you are the only ones I can trust.’
Kyle is said to have left.
Kendrick was deeply troubled, but eventually decided to follow Kyle’s orders.
Kyle’s orders to them were absolute.
After all, if the Vatican had anything to do with the devil, that was pretty serious.
It is said that Kendrick led the Knights of the Black Lion to raid the Vatican.
but.
-Saint Muriel stopped us.
It is said that Muriel stopped them.
The Knights of the Black Lion, including Kendrick.
These were all knights at the master level.
Even Kendrick is a talented person who won’t be easily pushed back even if he faces Durak.
However, Muriel was none other than Arnaise.
A saintess who has reached the realm of Exceed.
Muriel and the Knights of the Black Lion clashed.
In the end, Muriel subdued them.
-After that, the saintess imprisoned us here.
It is said that he died slowly.
Stuck in this dark basement, unable to do anything.
Xian was quiet in thought.
Kill the people of the Holy See.
A moment ago, the cry of the Death Knights.
At first, I thought it was a grudge against the Holy See.
It turned out that it was an order from Kyle and a mission that he could not carry out.
I ended up regretting not being able to fulfill my mission.
It seems to remain even after the body dies.
Not all knights of the Black Lion Knights were like that.
However, some Knights of the Black Lion, including Kendrick.
So, the 31 Death Knights gathered here.
Those who had a particularly strong loyalty to Kyle remained, and eventually became Death Knights and were resurrected.
Right then.
Tring!
